Christmas Crafting

I love the holidays, especially Christmas. There’s just something about the decorations and energy to put you in a festive mood (not to mention the delicious holiday food).

While working as a lifestyle reporter I had the chance to a story on Christmas crafting. Don’t worry, you do not have to be Martha Stewart to do any of these. They are very simple but cute.

The first crafting project is called “Socked” and would be great for an office. If you’ve ever been “BOOed” during Halloween it’s very similar.

Socked

You’ll Need: Stocking, Snacks, Treats, Holiday Goodies

How To: Stuff the stocking with the treats, goodies, and snacks. Write a note explaining to the person you leave it for they’ve been “Socked”. They then have 24 hours to re-fill the stocking and pass it on to another co-worker.

If you’re looking for a cute gift to bring to a holiday party, why not bring “Rein-Beer”. You can make this fun treat with root beer or your favorite malted beverage.
